MODEL 6614 MEAT SAW MODEL 6614 ML-134096 PREVIOUS MODELS COVERED BY THIS MANUAL: 6614 ML-134050 701 S. RIDGE AVENUE TROY, OHIO 45374-0001 937 332-3000 www.hobartcorp.com FORM 34527 Rev. B (August 2011) Installation, Operation, and Care of MODEL 6614 MEAT SAW SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL The 6614 Meat Saw is rugged, durable, and easy to clean. The saw is equipped with a water resistant 3 HP electric motor and direct gear drive transmission that provides a blade speed of 3500 feet per minute. The carriage (Fig. 1) has stainless steel ball bearings providing easy travel and dependability. The shaped front edge of the carriage is comfortable to the operator's body even when leaned on during movement. The carriage lock is standard. The upper pulley cover and baffle are stainless steel. Table, carriage, pulleys, guides, and wiper assemblies can be quickly removed without tools for ease of cleaning. Moving parts are enclosed but accessible. The blade is guarded above and below the cutting zone. The pusher plate is provided to eliminate the need of handling items close to the blade; it can ride on the right "flanged-end" of the carriage so you keep your hands away from the cutting edge of the blade. For electrical specifications above 250 volts, a transformer provides a 151 volt control circuit voltage. One long-life blade is furnished with each saw as standard equipment. This blade cannot be re-sharpened; replacement blades are available through your local Hobart Service Office.

If the meat saw is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure it agrees with the specifications on the machine data plate located on the column. Packed in a packet attached to the table compartment are the pusher plate and the gauge plate handle. Place the pusher plate in its storage location under the carriage support (Fig. 2). Assemble the gauge plate handle to the gauge plate support by screwing the stud into the threaded hole (Fig. 3). LEVELING Place the saw in its operating location. Using a spirit level, level the meat saw front-to-back and side-to- side by turning the threaded feet in or out.

SAW BLADE The saw blade must be installed so the teeth point to the right and down (Fig. 4). UPPER GUIDE AND GUARD ASSEMBLY Upper Guide and Guard When the saw is off, the hand knob (Fig. 4) can be used to raise or lower the upper guide and guard assembly so the cutting zone is only as high as necessary for the piece being cut. The Hand Knob hand knob is not loosened during raising or lowering — it should remain tightly secure. PL-52107 Fig. 4 – 3 – UPPER PULLEY COVER (Stainless STEEL) The stainless steel upper pulley cover (Fig. 5) should be installed on the two hinge pins of the stainless steel upper pulley baffle and securely latched during saw use. To remove the stainless steel upper pulley cover for cleaning, unlatch and open the stainless steel upper pulley cover; then, lift straight up off the hinge pins. LOWER COVER (SCRAP PAN) During use, the lower cover (Fig. 5) acts as a scrap pan, accumulating bone dust and debris from the blade scrapers and pulley wiper that are located on the lower panel (Fig. 6). To remove the lower cover (scrap pan) for cleaning, release the clip at the top; pull out and lift the lower cover from the groove at the bottom of the lower panel. UPPER PULLEYCOVER LOWER BLADE GUIDE TENSION ADJUSTER PULLEY WIPER COLUMN GUARD SAW BLADE CARRIAGE BLOCK LOWER COVER (SCRAP PAN) BLADE SCRAPERS CARRIAGE LOCK PL-41505-1 PL--41504-1 Fig. 5 Fig. 6 BLADE SCRAPERS Two blade scrapers wipe the blade during sawing to accumulate bone dust and debris inside the lower cover (scrap pan). The front scraper points up and the rear scraper points down (Fig. 6). After the blade is removed, the scrapers can slide off their mounting blocks for cleaning. PULLEY WIPER The pulley wiper (Fig. 6) scrapes bone dust or debris from the lower pulley during use. The pulley wiper can be removed for cleaning by springing the wiper up and sliding it off the pins. – 4 – LOWER PULLEY The lower pulley is assembled on the lower pulley shaft. The latch on the lower pulley should be seated in the groove of the pulley shaft (Fig. 7). The lower pulley can be removed after the blade has first been loosened and removed and the lower pulley latch is moved out of the groove of the lower pulley shaft. UPPER PULLEY The upper pulley is assembled on the upper pulley shaft. The round retainer on the upper pulley shaft should be positioned out-of-center when latched (Fig. 8). The upper pulley can be removed after the blade has first been loosened and removed and the round retainer is moved to the center of the upper pulley shaft. LOWER PULLEY UPPER PULLEY LATCH LATCH SHAFT SHAFT LATCHED UNLATCHED LATCHED UNLATCHED PL-41390-1 PL-41391-1 Fig. 7 Fig. 8 COLUMN GUARD The column guard (Fig. 5) covers the return loop of the moving blade and must always be in place during sawing. To remove the column guard for cleaning or blade change, first remove the right table and the upper pulley cover. You may want to remove the lower cover (scrap pan) as well. Then, lift the column guard up to free it from the two shoulder-screw heads on the column that it hangs from. TABLES — RIGHT AND LEFT During use, the right and left tables (Fig. 1) are secured underneath by pins and clamps. To remove the tables for cleaning: Raise the gauge plate to its vertical position; lift the right side of the right table up; and, remove the table from the two pins. After the right table is removed, the left table can be removed: Lift the left side of the left table up; and, shift it to the right to free it from the two pins. – 5 – SCRAP TRAY During use, the scrap tray should be installed between the left-hand table and the carriage support (Fig. 9). The scrap tray slides into place, resting on the frame between the carriage support and table. The angled side of the scrap tray is located nearest the blade. SCRAP TRAY PL-41499-1 Fig. 9 CARRIAGE In use, the carriage can roll back and forth between the left carriage stop (Fig. 10) and the right carriage stop, assuming the spring loaded carriage lock (Fig. 5) has not locked the carriage in a stationary position. To remove the carriage, turn either of the carriage stops 90 degrees so the bumper is toward the rear (Fig. 11). Roll the carriage off either end while lifting it free of the carriage support structure (Fig. 10). To reinstall the carriage, hold the carriage so the bearings (underneath) are aligned with the carriage support structure. Roll the carriage into place. Return the carriage stops so the carriage is stopped at both ends.

The blade fits in the slots of both the steel saw blade guide and the plastic guide. When the right table is removed and the plastic guide is hinged up, the lower blade guide assembly can be removed for cleaning by lifting it out of the lower guide holder. The steel saw blade guide is available in various widths depending on the blade being used. Contact Service to change the steel saw blade guide for other blade widths. LOWER BLADE GUIDE ASSEMBLY LOWER GUIDE HOLDER PL-40838-1 Fig. 12 REMOVING THE BLADE Remove the upper and lower pulley covers. Raise the gauge plate to its vertical position. Remove the right table by lifting its right side and sliding the table to the right to free it from the locating pins. Remove the column guard. Turn the tension adjuster counterclockwise until it stops (this will release tension on the blade by raising the lower pulley). Raise the plastic blade guide on the lower blade guide assembly and release the blade from the upper and lower blade guides. Free the blade from the blade scrapers in the lower pulley area and release it from the pulleys. Remove the blade. Make sure the pulleys are properly installed and the pulleys are latched (Figs. 7 & 8). Install the new blade with the teeth pointing to the right and down as you face the front of the saw. The blade must fit between the V's on the blade scrapers, in the slots of the upper and lower blade guides, and must not touch any of the pulley flanges. The lower blade guide must be installed after the blade is installed.
